About the host

This property belonged to our great grandparents, then to their son and his wife and their 8 children. Now, we 5 cousins own it. We want to share the property that holds so many special memories for us, especially during our childhood years. We hope for you to make wonderful memories here, too. Family time is priceless. We have plans of further property improvements over the next few years.
